The Childhood Goat Trauma Foundation: Goats Are Targeting Our Youth

An organization dedicated to helping prevent and treat trauma experienced by youngsters at the hands (um, hooves) of goats at petting zoos, which apparently makes kids five times more likely to become a social deviant.

Which could explain me. And the staff here at Needcoffee. And come to think of it, most of all of you too. Who knew?

Here’s some more traumatic facts about this previously unknown evil:

• Each year, over 6000 people are traumatized by goats in the United States alone.
• When given a choice four out five goats will attack a child before attacking either another goat or an adult.
• These same goats will choose to assault an adult over another goat more than three times out of five.

Go visit their official site. And remember: goat trauma isn’t just a problem, it’s also a great name for a band.
